Camden's First Christmas!

Wow! It's hard to believe that Camden's first Christmas has already come and gone! In fact, today is his 5 month birthday! Time really is flying by! We had a wonderful Christmas season celebrating with friends and family. We feel truly blessed to be surrounded by so many people who love us and support us and are so thankful for all the love that is constantly showered down on our little one.

We celebrated with my side of the family for a few days before flying out to see the Allenby clan in Ohio on Christmas Eve day. Here are some pictures from our time with our families...

We got tons of snow over our vacation...here's a picture of our house during one of the storms!


And then we were off to Ohio! I was sooooo nervous for the flights (hoping that we weren't going to be THAT couple with the screaming baby...), but Camden (as usual) was amazing! He slept the whole way there and back!

Here he is with his Great Grandma and Grandpa Erickson...


and playing with his Great Grandma and Grandpa Allenby...


The whole family...

Family fun...


One Christmas tradition that we are starting with Camden (a continuation of Scott's childhood tradition) is that we are going to give him an ornament each Christmas that he will take with him when he is all grown up and out on his own. Here is this year's ornament...


We hope you all have a wonderful year in 2009! I know we will!
